The Silverman family believes they have a hidden fortune, buried somewhere in Poland, a lost treasure
that belonged to a mysterious uncle, Leon Simes. As their son Art searches for clues, it is Leon himself,
not the promise of gold, jewels and money, that becomes the subject of detective work. Eventually, the
searching son brings back something as valuable as treasure. Reality and fantasy blur in this personal
work, in which traces of the past emerge as powerful reminders of a family history.
